The last Kentucky Derby prep points race today is the Lexington, Keenland 9th. Seems like the only horse TODAY where it is do or die to get a start launch into the Kentucky Derby is Disarm, the #6. He's currently sitting in 26th place with 40 points. A first (20 points), second (8 points), or third (6 points) gets him in!
However, LOL, I like the 8, Empirestrikesfast
. Ok bred, but they paid for this one. Waited late to release, broke maiden in first race, totally overlooked at long odds in short field, and the 3 yo monster impressively fought back - BIG win. Trainer Mott does well with with Maiden win last race %. Built like a brick sh!thouse lol. Hope this gelding gets overlooked again being 4-1 ml, and the circumstances of the race being the cause, and lots of runners. Good luck today!
